Artist Michelle Perkett

Recently I became acquainted with the artist Michelle Perkett. She has designed stamps for Faerie Song Art Stamps as well as having her own digital ones. I really enjoy her style and her sparkling and upbeat personality are a joy on their own.
She has card challenges on her PCP group each week. I created this one a couple of weeks ago.

In the Quiet Land of Peace

I have created a card with In the Quiet Land of Peace Mermaid Stamp in very different colors from last week. It gives a completely different, yet still peaceful, feel. This stamp is quickly becoming one of my favorites (no, I have not said that about every single one- well, can you blame me?).

While you are at the store purchasing every single mermaid released this month because the price is so fabulous in this collection, check out the amazing variety of kits the Queen puts together. Truly, they ROCK and will unleash your creativity.

It is time for a PARTY!!

Sweet Pea Stamps will be having a party at their Paper Craft Planet Group this Sunday at 10 pm EST. There will be lots of prizes and the unveiling of the next release!! You do NOT want to miss this! See you there!!!

Incy Wincy Designs Challenge #17

I had the opportunity to be the guest designer this week for the Incy Wincy Designs challenge. The challenge is to create a Thank You card. I used one of the Incy Wincy digi stamps designed by Inger Harding. The prize this week is not only the opportunity to guest design if you want, but also a digi stamp bundle that has not even been released yet!

Flutter By #82 and WIS Challenge

The Saturday challenge at Whimsical Ink Sorority this week is to use BUTTERFLIES! The challenge at Flutter By Wednesday this week is an open challenge provided it has a butterfly or fairy on it. How perfect is that?


This card uses the mermaid Lorali with her stunning butterfly wings! I colored her with Prismacolor Markers for the skin/hair and Spica pens for everything else.
There is another butterfly mermaid that has been added just this month! It is Monarch Mia - give her a look!

Hayden the Artist

I believe that art is one of the truest forms of expression available. I love to encourage it and creativity and art for PLAY with my children and everyone!!! I have only discovered how much fun it is myself in the last few years and I feel like I missed so much! When I saw this image of Hayden painting I was just so excited! Then I got to play with it!!!! What a treat!
This is plate #15 with the Gum Drop Gang. There is also an image of Cameron and a couple of fabulous quotes!
